	Description
	У16 steel is used: for the manufacture of special bearings; dies, crankshafts, balls and other wear parts.
Note
Steel grafitirovannye. When abrasive wear of graphite plays the role of lubricant, preventing dry friction and adhesion.
Steel anti-vibration properties.

	| Microstructure | Silicon is gravitizers element. Some of the carbon after annealing graphicsimage provided in the form of graphite (similar to annealing to obtain a malleable cast iron). After heat treatment the structure consists of a granular perlite with a number of small spherical precipitates of graphite. |
